Congrats to Noah Sheer and the Def Jam promo team for landing Jhene Aiko her first #1 at radio with “B.S.” f/H.E.R. In fact, it’s the only R&B record to hit at the urban mainstream format the entire 2020.
Natina Nimene, Def Jam’s SVP, Urban Promotion & Artist Relations, spread the cheer with an email to staff that read, “Noah, Mundo—you had the vision 2 weeks ago to take this leap in to the top spot and without your leadership and 17,000 emails we wouldn’t be here. Thank you!
“We didn’t break a new artist this year, but we broke an artist!!”
